Fixing yum performance

[Christopher Svanefalk]

A recurring problem I have had for several Fedora releases now is that Yum
over time becomes slower and slower as more packages are installed. This is
of course to be expected due to the DB growing, but in my case Yum has now
become so slow that it is almost unusable. Normally, it takes 2-3 minutes
just to install a single package. most of the time, this latency will take
place between yum first being invoked, and the part where I am asked to
accept that the packages are downloaded and installed. It thus seems to be
a DB issue.

Is there any way to fix this??
